Why Did I Listen To This Audiobook? I am such a huge Jennifer Donnelly fangirl. Well, to an extent. I do not love those mermaid books, but I love her more mature young adult books and have had those Tea Rose books on my TBR for pretty much forever. When I came across These Shallow Graves […]
A Thousand Nights by EK Johnston | Book Review
October 21, 2015
Is it just me or is this the year of the A Thousand And One Nights retellings? Either way, this is an abundance of non-white richness and I am a huge fan of that. EK Johnston’s A Thousand Nights is right on point with this young adult trend. While it might lack the richness of The Wrath And The […]

Illuminae by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman | Book Review
September 30, 2015
My immediate first words upon finishing Illuminae by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman were “what do I even do with my life now?†For real, this book took me on quite the journey and I do not know about you all, but when I come back from a particularly great trip, I have this disoriented […]
